Inspired by the Up-Goer Five text editor by @theosanderson, itself inspired by @xkcd. Great reporting on the banned list by @JoelAchenbach @Carolynyjohnson and @ssdance at WaPo.

I'm excited to introduce Thoughtcrime Checker! This simple text editor highlights any words on the Trump administration's "banned" list. Remove these words from your NSF/NIH grants and see if you can avoid the Thought Police!

Excited to see my Paul Bunyan poem find a home on "The Nature of Our Times," a poetry companion to the National Nature Assessment. This poem has been kicking around since reading Stranger in the Woods by @MikeFinkel years ago!. @usgcrp @DavidWickPoetry.

Enjoyed working on this piece, thanks @ixodesdammini of @tuftsvet for chatting with me about the curious abundance of Lyme disease vaccines for dogs.
Pet owners have long been able to vaccinate their dogs against Lyme disease. Soon, a promising vaccine could give hikers the same protection.

Requesting help from #BirdTwitter (for a friend):. “We're getting new siding next week and there's a bird nest in our attic because there are holes in the current siding. Any idea what we should do with them?”

so many perfectly palatable ant species out there to get into my cereal, but of course it’s always odorous house ants floating in the milk 🙄.

"[in his book] @DGHaskell suggests that the arachnids might 'charm our nerve endings,' through some unknown physiological process—something akin to Fremen sandwalking on the Planet Dune, trying not to alert the giant worms. ".1st byline 4 @BackpackerMag

Lyme disease is one of the most debilitating tickborne illnesses. But a cure could be on its way.
